pistol pete Posted November 5, 2007 Share Posted November 5, 2007 well have been thinking of doing one of these for ages so had a spare hour the other night and a 7530 and fergie in stock. not finished yet but thought as i haven't posted for a while i would post it to see what you think. still needs steering wheel mudgaurds painted and cab tweaked. have a pma32 front hitch but don't know if i will fit it.

Tractorman810 Posted November 5, 2007 Share Posted November 5, 2007 looks good pete, recon that pma front hitch will fit ok, although it may have been better before spraying so it could have any of the chassis ground off ,i have fitted one to a uh celtis chassis without any chassis work needed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fenside MF Posted November 5, 2007 Share Posted November 5, 2007 looks really good pete I was thinking of doing one as a first attempt at a convo but was a bit sceptical that the 30 series bonnet would be too high and rear arches too wide but it definatley isn't and it looks spot on scale wise, are u happy with the mf style wheels?

pistol pete Posted November 5, 2007 Author Share Posted November 5, 2007 yep i think i will fit the front hitch the tractor isn't stuck togetheir yet so i will strip it down andfit the hitch. should have it finished this week before i go to agri tech. bought two of those hitches one for a model of my real 6820 at home. the hitches are so like the dagenhart hitch is is uncanny.

fendt-man-matty Posted November 6, 2007 Share Posted November 6, 2007 that looks soooo good, great start!! do u hav any more pics of your 7530 with the front linkage or how did u fit the front linkage to it??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pistol pete Posted November 6, 2007 Author Share Posted November 6, 2007 The front linkage on the 7530 is glued on it. you have to do a bit of cutting and grinding to get it to fit. the 64 will also have front hitch fitted as well. will post a pic of both hitches tommorrow.

new holland 4 ever Posted November 7, 2007 Share Posted November 7, 2007 nice tractor! just a little idea for it to look even better is to cut off that steering "knob" of the cabin and filling the hole. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pistol pete Posted November 7, 2007 Author Share Posted November 7, 2007 nice tractor! just a little idea for it to look even better is to cut off that steering "knob" of the cabin and filling the hole. Will be doing that its cab will be done just like its 75 big brother. but will probarly have a flash bar instead of double becons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powerstarâ„¢ Posted November 7, 2007 Share Posted November 7, 2007 No please don't put a flash bar on it, it will ruin in, flash bars give an industrial appearence which I personally hate, Fastrac's yes, 4cyl. JD's no! My opinion though!, double beacons will look the part! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
